 ## Linking Variables to Text
+- right click on the bottom of the text selection square and click Edit Text
+- once the dialog box is open, right click on the text and click convert to expression
+- instead of typing `4.25mm` type, you can type `toString(#trimming_length/mm)~"mm"` and it will automatically update to the correct value in the correct units with your added text of `mm`.
